Favourite documentaries on Disney+

[Marjo]

Hi guys,

I've subscribed to Disney+ too recently as I love streaming TV shows and movies (already have Netflix and Amazon Prime!). We've had some discussion around Disney+ before, but I wanted to concentrate this time specifically on the documentaries. 

They have a whole section just for National Geographic stuff to watch which is really exciting, and I've added loads to my watch list! I really like documentaries but it's not something I've actually actively sought out previously, it's been more of an after thought when there's nothing else to watch.

I think with the lockdown I've really started to watch more documentaries, and I'm loving it. I'm learning a lot as well and I'm arranging time from my day to spend watching these.

Maybe watching more documentaries will also one day help me with my answers in @Mi-Amigo  weekly quizzes....

For example, I've been watching a few episodes of The World According to Jeff Goldblum so far and I think it's awesome. Jeff Goldblum is presenting in his quirky style and he's finding out interesting facts and history about every-day things such as ice cream and sneakers that you might not have heard before. Have you seen this one too guys?

I also watched a few nature docs so far such as one about migratory birds that was really fascinating. Veterinary documentaries, animals and space also are super interesting to me and I've added a few to my watch list already.

At the moment on the National Geographic side of Disney+ you have the following documentary categories with several docs in each. On top of these there are some additional Disney documentaries as well!

• Series
• Movies and specials
• Vets and pets
• Science and innovation
• Animals and nature
• Exploring our world

Do you guys actively watch Disney+ at the moment? If so have you liked the documentaries so far? I'd love to hear what documentary types are your favourites from the above list (and in general if you don't have Disney+!), and if you have specific titles in mind that you can recommend for our collective watch lists?

They showed a clip of the elephant one on Gogglebox the other day and that looked quite good...

@gmarkj  I saw that clip as well. PS....Last Gogglebox tonight until September. (Love it)

Morning guys!

I'd love to hear how you liked the elephant one if you get a chance to watch it @gmarkj  or @Cleoriff ! Any other documentaries you like?

I confess I had to google what Gogglebox is.

And are you bitterly disappointed?

Seen they have an App for the Roku stick and was in two minds whether to sign in up for a bit but if they have included some of the science docs I probably will now.

I haven't got Disney+ @Marjo  so no I haven't seen it.

As for Gogglebox, you either love it or hate it. All of my family love it.
